(Side note - ORSA had to be one of the worst FT tragedies during the 2000 season. Despite incredibly hard work by Fred Cobb, superb range facilities, and support of friends from neighboring states (like Brad), Fred could not over-come the ill-intensions of other, more influential sub-groups operating inside ORSA, flexing their politically motivated muscle to push him and FT out. He was whacked on over and over, until he finally called it quits. It was a loss for all of us, but none of us felt it like Fred. I am sure several in the FT community will miss his presence and involvement in the sport. I know I will.)
